Listen, if you have a good head on your shoulders and can THINK then you may be able to discern a little character. NEVER meet someone alone, take someone with you; ALWAYS meet someone in a public place, do the chat thing, feel it out, and if you have ANY doubts go somewhere else. YOU DONT HAVE TO BE AFRAID ALL THE TIME. Use your head. The original post WAS NOT A STUPID QUESTION. There are good people out there just trying to make some extra cash selling bud. LEARN and know what you're doing and you should be okay.
